//! I DON'T NEED TO CREATE A TWILIO SERVICE coz I ALREAY CREATED A SERVICE, and I can use the SID of the service instead. Visit this link to check the service: https://www.twilio.com/console/verify/services ~Sahil
// Step 1: Create a Verification Service
// client.verify.v2.services
// 	.create({friendlyName: 'My First Verify Service'})
// 	.then((service) => console.log(service.sid))
// 	.catch((e) => console.log('CREATE A VERIFICATION:', e));

// Step 2: SEND A VERIFICATION TOKEN
const sendVerifyToken = () =>
	client.verify.v2
		.services(serviceId) // .services('VAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX')
		.verifications.create({to, channel: 'sms'})
		.then((verification) => console.log(verification.status)) // OUTPUT: "pending"
		.catch((e) => console.log('START VERIFICATION - FAILED:', e));

sendVerifyToken();

// return;
// console.log('here');

// Step 3: CHECK THE VERIFICATION TOKEN
const checkVerifyToken = () =>
	client.verify.v2
		.services(serviceId) // .services('VAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX')
		.verificationChecks.create({to, code: '3584'})
		.then((verification_check) => console.log(verification_check.status)) // OUTPUT: "approved"
		.catch((e) => console.log(() => console.log('CHECK VERIFICATION - FAILED:', e)));
